1. What can young and old people learn from each other?
I think young and old people can teach a lot to each other. Old people can use their life experience
to teach young one’s the important life values and lessons, whereas the youngsters can help the
elderly by teaching them about the latest technological trends such as how to use computers and
mobile phones.
2. Has old people’s life quality improved when compared to the past?
Definitely yes, I believe there has been a significant improvement in the quality of life of the old
people. With the advancements in the field of medicine, there are treatments available for old-age
related ailments such as osteoarthritis, thus making their life more comfortable. Also, social media
has helped old people to stay in touch with their friends and family who live far away, instead of living
an isolated life as compared to the past.
3. Why is there a generation gap between the young and the old?
I believe there are two main reasons behind the generation gap. First is due to the change in priorities,
while the elderly believed in working hard and saving money, the younger generation wants to work
smartly and party hard. So, the elderly often think that the younger generation is not serious about
life. From the perspective of young people, they often see the elderly as boring and have a perception
that the old people are not ready to adapt to the changing trends in society.
4. What do old people usually do in their life?
I think old people do many things in their life but mostly it depends on their economic and social
status. Those who can afford, love to travel, play golf, spend time in clubs and enjoy their retired life.
Others usually like to stay home, read books, spend time with their grandchildren, and sometimes do
a pilgrimage to famous temples.
